A rare opportunity to experience the warmth and character of a timeless California Mediterranean aesthetic, thoughtfully paired with sophisticated modern comforts and amenities. Reclaimed antique barn wood, hand-tooled beams, soaring ceilings, hardwood floors, multiple fireplaces, fountains, French doors, and expansive windows create a warm, richly textured setting throughout. Located in Santa Monica Canyon on a cul-de-sac in the coveted Canyon School district with top-rated Canyon Charter Elementary School, the residence offers an exceptional combination of character, privacy, and tranquility, just moments from the ocean. From the street, handsome wood gates open to an enchanting front courtyard with a large bubbling fountain and sitting area that welcome you to the home. Step through the beautifully carved wood front door into the foyer which leads to a light-filled office/study with custom built-in wooden bookcases and a wall of windows overlooking the courtyard. The office flows seamlessly into the step-down living room, anchored by a fireplace with a striking antique wood-beam mantel. Across the hallway French doors open to the elegant dining room, creating an inviting setting for intimate dinners and larger celebrations. At the heart of the home are the kitchen and family room with an open design for both entertaining and everyday living. The beautifully appointed chef's kitchen features both stone and wooden butcher block countertops, stainless steel appliances, two generous pantries, a wine refrigerator, double-oven, a substantial center island with a six-burner cooktop, and a breakfast bar. The family room boasts a lovely, raised fireplace with decorative tiles, and a wall of French doors that effortlessly extend the family room to the backyard, creating an intimate indoor-outdoor environment for entertaining or relaxing. Additionally, the downstairs area has a private bedroom with en-suite bath, laundry room, and a powder room that provides flexibility for guests, extended family, or staff. Lushly landscaped and designed as a private sanctuary, the grounds feature an open patio with a built-in barbeque, cascading waterfalls, stone fireplace with adjoining seating area, and over-sized grotto-style spa. The generous outdoor space also offers the opportunity to reimagine the grounds with a flat grassy area, ideal for play or additional outdoor living. A handsome wood bannister and beautifully detailed California tile staircase ascends to the upper level, where four spacious bedrooms including the primary, each feature a private en-suite bath. The exceptional primary suite is a private retreat with very stunning high wood-beamed ceilings, fireplace, dual walk-in closets, and an artisan-inspired spa bath with a large soaking tub and luxurious tiled shower.
